Utah man is state’s first rabies death in 74 years A Utah man who caught bats and let his wife play with them, died of rabies — the first death of its kind in the state in 74 years. Gary Giles, 55, first began having neck and back pain on Oct. 19 and doctors thought he’d just pulled a muscle. But the pain only got worse and turned to numbness and tingling. “Being touched, he felt like he had pins and needles all over his skin,” Giles’ daughter Crystal Sedgwick told Fox13. “He felt like his skin was on fire.” It wasn’t until Giles died on Sunday at Utah Valley Hospital that doctors realized he’d been infected with rabies, Sedgwick said. The state’s health department believe he contracted the deadly virus from bats, which literally hung around his home, but they’re still working to confirm the theory. “My mom has always thought that bats were really cute, so he would sit there and hold them for her and let her pet their heads, and they would lick them,” Sedgwick said. Sedgwick’s mom, Juanita Giles, said she didn’t realize the bats that infested their home could be carriers of the highly contagious ailment. “I had no clue,” she told KSL. “We would wake up in the night and they would be walking on our bed.” EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!! “I’ve always thought bats were kind of cute, but I had no idea the kind of risk we were at.” Since her husband’s death, Juanita said she and the rest of the family are getting vaccinated — just in case. The last time someone died of rabies in Utah was 1944. According to the CDC, there have only been 23 cases of human rabies reported in the US between 2008 and 2017.

I think that even though he isn't on the show anymore, Richard Belzer should tweet that he's never had a glass of Ice-T(ea).

KFC launching chicken and waffles nationwide for limited time Skip the trendy brunch spot lines and head for the takeout window. KFC is launching Kentucky Fried Chicken & Waffles nationwide Monday, here for just a limited time.

Ice-T announced on Twitter Friday that he’s never eaten a bagel in his life. A fan asked the “Law and Order: SVU” star what his favorite type of bagel was, and he responded, “Lol. I’ve never eaten a Bagel in my life…” Obviously, fans were in disbelief about his response, with one even attempting to call him out for apparently having eaten cinnamon raisin a bagel on his hit series. “Lol. TV is make believe,” he replied. Twitter users must have continued to express their shock at his revelation because Ice-T seemed to reach his limit. “White people.. Don’t lose your Fn minds because I’ve never eaten a Bagle [sic].. Take it easy…. lol,” he tweeted. The 60-year-old rapper isn’t the only person to have surprised people with his eating habits, as Kylie Jenner shared she had never tried milk with cereal until September 2018. Kylie called the combination “life-changing.”

$4,300-per-night male escort reveals what women really want The guy obviously has a way with a pussy! A man who quit a high-flying job to become a male escort has revealed the unlikely thing many women ask for — breakfast in bed. Ryan James, 31, spoke to Australia’s “The Morning Show” about his life as an escort and revealed how he resigned from his corporate job in finance to switch careers. Now he charges between $285 and $4,300 for his services. Sex work is legal in Australia, although it is regulated differently by the country’s six states. James told the show: “I didn’t tell them [my family] at first.” “When I did get started, I told my friends pretty quickly. My family found out a little later.” “It was a bit of a mixed reaction. They don’t treat me any differently because of it.” He added: “It’s probably not the kind of thing parents would choose for their children, but they still treat me well.” James told how his most popular request was a luxury dinner date, which includes six hours of pampering or pleasure, an overnight sleepover and breakfast in the morning. On his website, James said he was “courteous, polite and a gentleman at all times.” “Any encounter we have will be truly memorable, leaving you wanting to come back again and again,” he added. He has a “wish list” of gifts women can buy him, including Hugo Boss suits, Prada shoes and Tag Heuer watches, but he also welcomes charity donations. James previously told the Daily Mail that companionship was important for women. “Pretty much every single client that I see there’s some companionship element to the booking,” he said. “From what I see, men are more focused on the sexual side of things. Women are focused on the sex too, they wouldn’t come to see me without it, but we spend a lot of time talking as well.” James says many of his clients could easily meet a man in a bar, but that they want a “different experience.” Some are recently divorced, while others are still married but haven’t been intimate with their husbands for some time. The youngest of James’ clients was just 20, but he says it’s rare for them to be in their 20s.

Mass shooting victim’s mom wants gun control, not ‘prayers’ The mother of a victim in the California shooting tragedy — who managed to survive the 2017 massacre in Las Vegas — said she wants gun control and not “thoughts and prayers” after the death of her son. The grieving mom of Telemachus Orfanos was emotional as she told reporters she wants “no more guns” after the latest mass shooting inside the Borderline Bar in Thousand Oaks. “My son was in Las Vegas with a lot of his friends and he came home,” the woman said. “He didn’t come home last night.” The woman continued: “I don’t want prayers, I don’t want thoughts — I want gun control and I hope to God nobody sends me any more prayers.”

That was his 'hook' when they introduced 6 new interns last year. (They did a pretty good job of making the new people interesting and/or likable.) The first time Schmitt was in an OR observing, he leaned over the patient and his glasses fell into the open abdominal cavity. His nickname became Glasses, and he is still occasionally called that. He has proven to be a competent doctor, though an awkward person.

If you'd have started this topic in the fetish forum, you might've gotten a few other alternatives to wiping. On CHELSEA LATELY, Chelsea Handler used to berate Jeff Wild for the direction in which he wiped, but I don't remember which way she said was the right direction.

Train your tongue to be extra-nimble, so that if they are real diamonds, you can remove them without swallowing them or him noticing, then sell them on ebay.:rolleyes::cool:

A misspelling of Ms. Winfrey's name, which is kinda ironic because she's explained that her name was spelled "Orpah" on her birth certificate after the biblical figure in the Book of Ruth, but people mispronounced it regularly and "Oprah" stuck.

I'll take NORMAN LEAR SHOWS For $1000, Alex... All In The Family Maude The Jeffersons The Powers That Be

DEAR ABBY: How can I tactfully tell an elementary school teacher in whose class I assist that she uses poor grammar and words that aren't words (i.e., "I boughten this yesterday," or, "Her and me went to the soccer game.")? I am fond of this teacher but feel she's doing a disservice to her pupils. Other than that she's a devoted, energetic teacher. It is really difficult to bite my tongue. -- TACTFUL IN THE EAST DEAR TACTFUL: Children model their behavior after the example the adults around them provide. That a teacher would consistently do what she's doing in a classroom setting is shocking. How could she have become a licensed educator with such poor English skills? Politically speaking, I don't think that as her subordinate you should take it upon yourself to correct the woman. I do think this is something you should discuss with the school principal.

I've never watched the show, but I read somewhere that wrestler John Morrison ( https://www.companyofmen.org/threads/a-reason-to-watch-wrestling.73484/#post-650508 ) is on. Methinks the man needeth a jockstrap:

Man dies after injecting silicone in genitals, mom blames sex ‘cult’ master A Washington kink enthusiast died last month after silicone injections in his genitals led to fatal bleeding, but his mom believes a gay sex “cult” is to blame. Jack Chapman, a 28-year-old Australian living in Seattle, died from “silicone embolism syndrome” resulting in hemorrhaging in the lungs, the King County Medical Examiner’s Office told The Stranger this week. Chapman — who went by “Tank Heathcliff Hafertepen” and “Pup Tank” — was an active member of San Francisco and later Seattle’s gay BDSM community. Chapman served as one of several slaves to master Dylan Hafertepen, known as the nickname “Noodles and Beef.” Hafertepen, who has thousands of followers on social media, is known for posting salacious photos with his slaves, whom he calls his “pups.” Several of Hafertepen’s “pups,” including Tank, appear to have artificially enlarged genitals as well as extremely muscular bodies. Chapman’s mother Linda is blaming Hafertepen for turning her son on to the dangerous body modification that resulted in his death. She likened her son’s relationship with his master to a cult. “It was devotion, it was like some sort of clan, family, like a cult. And to prove their devotion to him they had to change their bodies,” Linda said on the Australian talk show The Project, which aired on Channel 10 this week. “He was not the Jack that I sent over there. He had no self-esteem, he’d lost himself in this cult. This was a disturbed boy,” she added. Linda detailed a contract her son signed with Hafertepen which promised his master total control over his mind and body. She said her son was required to take Hafertepen’s last name, give him his salary, wear a chain around his neck and cut off contact with anyone outside his BDSM circle. Hafertepen deactivated several of his accounts after Chapman’s death. It is not known who injected silicone into Chapman’s scrotum. Chapman’s death in mid-October was caused by a viral inflammation of the lungs called pneumonitis, which progressed to acute respiratory distress syndrome, the King County Medical Examiner’s Office said. The syndrome eventually resulted hemorrhaging in the lungs. Three weeks prior to his death, Chapman signed over all his money to Hafertepen in his will, something Linda said she finds unsettling. “Three weeks before he dies he writes a will and leaves everything to Dylan. If that’s not suspicious I don’t know what is,” she told The Project. Linda said her son Jack and his autistic brother Ben each received $200,000 after her late husband’s death. Jack’s money was intended to go to Ben’s medical care if anything were to ever happen to him, she explained. Linda confronted Hafertepen about the will on The Project. “You didn’t think of his autistic brother, on a disability pension. $200,000 is a pretty good price, isn’t it?” she said to him. “I was intending to give that to Ben,” he replied. Linda then asks him to put that in writing. “Not with this animosity,” he said. A Facebook post on a memorial page for Chapman praises his relationship with Hafertepen. “Tank’s greatest passion was for his partner, Dylan. Together for over eight years, their love overcame challenges the size of continents, and persisted as an unbreakable bond. Tank’s devotion and love for his partner was absolute. Tank’s final words to Dylan were ‘Thank you for allowing me to serve you,’” the post read. The Facebook memorial also says Chapman died of “an undiagnosed lung ailment,” which contradicts the coroner’s statement. Linda said she plans to go to the police over her son’s death. “The Seattle Police Department and King County Medical Examiner’s Office have reviewed the medical file related to this death, as well as concerns from the community. There is no criminal investigation at this time,” the department told The Stranger.

I was pointing out that, as cute & talented as you think the son is, his father is nothing special to look at, nor was he anything special as a pitcher.

Daddy is nothing special. Former Twins pitcher Pat Mahomes arrested while watching son's college football game OCTOBER 31, 2016 — 7:16PM BRIAN PETERSON – STAR TRIBUNE FILE Police say the father of Texas Tech quarterback Patrick Mahomes, former Twins pitcher Pat Mahomes, was arrested on a charge of public intoxication during the Red Raiders' game at TCU over the weekend. Officer Tamara Valle of the Fort Worth Police Department said Monday that former major league pitcher Pat Mahomes was arrested about 5:45 p.m. Saturday by an off-duty officer working the game while the elder Mahomes was in the TCU student section in the stands of Amon G. Carter Stadium. Public intoxication is a Class C misdemeanor. Valle was not sure when Pat Mahomes was released from jail. Pat Mahomes was taken to the Fort Worth jail before the end of the game, which Texas Tech won 27-24 in double overtime. His son scored on a 15-yard touchdown in the first overtime. Mahomes, 46, was drafted by the Twins in 1988 and pitched for the team from 1992-1996. He pitched for five other teams in a major league career that lasted until 2003.
